Japanese Samurai Sword Koshirae – Tsuba Alloy 099

Well it did not fit but as you'll see in the photos I had to make my own modification it seems like this tsuba was meant for a Wakizashi and not a Katana. It would be helpful to give that information in the description. The last two photos reveals the size deference in the opening that were used for holding the small hair daggers, most may not know what the opening's were used for but as can see from the other sword I used to make a comparison the opening is slightly shorten. It seems like I got the last one and took over a month to arrive and I didn't feel like going through all the ups and downs just to return something that clearly came from China, it looks well made so I'm okay with it.

Make sure the blade dimensions match the sword. Otherwise they are a tight fit. Look great.
